Calculate Total Garden Area: Mary has a garden of 48 square feet and has planted cherry tomatoes and cucumbers. She planted cucumbers in 36 square feet. We need to find the area for cherry tomatoes, represented by t.
Subtract Cucumber Area: To find the area for cherry tomatoes, subtract the area of cucumbers from the total area of the garden. Calculation: 48−36=12 square feet.
Formulate Equation for Cherry Tomatoes: The equation that represents this situation is t+36=48, where t is the area for cherry tomatoes.
